Lesson 6 -The Follow Through. (Changed 11/10/2025)

THE FOLLOW THROUGH

Again similar to the back swing and the down swing movement, consider the follow through movement as a separate action that begins at the precise moment the club head strikes the ball.

All parts of the golf swing require your full concentration, but if you want to hit the ball in the direction you are aiming, the follow through must be performed correctly.

Up to this impact position the turning of the hips and the whole twisted body unit has returned the club head to the ball, but importantly this hip action must continue to dominate throughout the follow through movement.

Follow Through Movement.

Therefore the hands have been held back from moving past the original address position - until the club head strikes the ball.

However at this point the right shoulder is much lower than the left shoulder, the left leg is almost fully straightened and the hips are partially facing the target area.

As the ball is struck, the rotational movement of the hip movement must move in cordination with the whole twisted body in order to ensure that the whole body turns to fully face the target area at the same speed the club head is moving towards the target area - whilst balanced on a continually straightening left leg, thus swinging the club head through the contact area and forcing the arms to follow the flight of the ball.

I cannot stress too strongly that the hip action must continue to rotate in conjunction with the twisted body unit so that the whole body turns as a solid one piece unit to fully face the target area, thus using the whole body as a battering ram to hit the ball very hard

Failure to do so will result in hooking the ball .
